What is Azure Functions?
Azure Functions is Microsoft's event-driven serverless compute service for running functions on demand. This profile connects the concept to KBY's practical engineering guidance.
Functions are triggered by HTTP, queues, timers and other Azure events, with bindings simplifying access to supported services. Hosting plans determine scaling, network integration, execution duration and cost characteristics.
Primary purpose
Execute event-driven application code without managing the underlying servers.
